   CELTICROLLERCOASTER SUPPORTING @WALKWITHSHAY on 22ND FEBRUARY 2018 12:42 PM

    

   ***CQN helping “OUR mate Mick”***

    

    

    

    

    

    

   Good Afternoon fholks

    

    

    

    

    

    

   Thanks for all the pledges so far!!!

    

    

    

    

    

    

   We have all recently caught up with what has happened recently to a Coatbridge lad called Michael Jardine. If you haven’t please take 5 minutes to read his story. It is heart-breaking!

    

    

    

    

    

    

   mymatemick.com

    

    

    

    

    

    

   Mick has a wife, and two young kids ( Louis 6 and Florence nearly a big 4), and needs our help to get him and his family through this difficult time. His good friend is NavanBhoy who played a big part with a team of Irish bhoys in the WeeOscar4life cycle from Glasgow to Belfast, as well as supporting the cause throughout.

    

    

    

    

    

    

   I am looking to start a special Celtic Goals Galore Easter Challenge (This will be separate from LMS10 which will be launched tomorrow).

    

    

    

    

    

    

   1 Starting 25th Feb, Join me over the next 5 weeks and pledge an amount per goal scored for Celtic ( i.e. £1, £2, £5, £10 per goal etc)

    

    

    

    

    

    

   2 Between Sunday 25th February and Easter Sunday, keep a tally of the amount of goals scored by Celtic

    

    

    

    

    

    

   3 On Easter Sunday; Take the goals scored and multiply by your donation ( i.e. 7 x £5= £35)

    

    

    

    

    

    

   4 At the start feel free to cap your overall donation ( i.e £10, £18.88, £19.67, £20 etc)

    

    

    

    

    

    

   5 Make your donation over to the CQN Celtic Goals Galore fund on Easter Monday (TBA)

    

    

    

    

    

    

   6 All entrants will be entered into a very special prize draw to win some great prizes (TBA)

    

    

    

    

    

    

   Celtic Goals Galore Games

    

    

    

    

    

    

   Sun, 25th Feb Aberdeen

   So, I am going to pledge £5 per goal for this great cause and cap it at £25 ( just in case Celtic run riot over Easter!)

    

    

    

    

    

    

   I appreciate that you may be supporting other causes, and/or committed to other Lenten promises or may not have the spare funds at this time, but if you can help, then just let me know by emailing your pledge to [email protected].

7. embramike says ” Yer team’s deid…Beat it!” on 22nd February 2018 5:05 pm

   Starting line up …

    

    

   De Vries ; Lustig, Simunovic, Ajer, Tierney ; Brown, Kouassi , Ntcham, McGregor ; Forrest , Dembele

    

    

   Subs: Bain, Miller, Hendry, Rogic, Musonda, Edouard, Sinclair
8. 'GG on 22nd February 2018 5:05 pm

   BRENDAN Rodgers will field the same starting XI that defeated Zenit St Petersburg 1-0 last week at Paradise for tonight’s return leg in Russia.

    

   The Scottish champions put on one of their best performances of the season against Zenit last week, and the Celtic manager will be looking to replicate that form tonight as his side aim to progress to the last 16 of the UEFA Europa League.

    

   That means a midfield quartet of Scott Brown, Olivier Ntcham, Eboue Kouassi and Callum McGregor will play behind Moussa Dembele up front.

    

   Kieran Tierney and James Forrest take up positions on either flank in front of a back three of Mikael Lustig, Jozo Simunovic and Kristoffer Ajer.

    

   Kick-off at the 64,000-capacity Krestovsky Stadium is 6pm (Celtic Park time). For all the pre-match build-up and live updates head to @CelticFC.

    

    

   CELTIC: (3-5-1-1) De Vries; Lustig, Simunovic, Ajer; Forrest, Kouassi, Brown, Ntcham; Tierney; McGregor; Dembele.

    

   Subs: Bain, Miller, Hendry, Sinclair, Rogic, Musonda, Edouard

   Celtic aren’t playing well is SMSM code for the Rainjurz are coming
10. GlassTwoThirdsFull on 22nd February 2018 5:06 pm

    I’m guessing Rogic isn’t fit enough to start. Would have liked either him or Armstrong for their breaking runs. Can’t afford Moussa getting isolated. Hopefully Jamesie can do that.

     

    Can’t give the ball away cheaply or switch off at the back.

     

    Cautiously optimistic.

     

    C’mon Celtic!

    HaHa I don’t have a day job mate , apologies if my efforts offend you :)
21. DeniaBhoy on 22nd February 2018 5:25 pm

    No matter the outcome, I am delighted that BR has picked the same team as last week and will play the same system. Control the midfield, give the defence plenty of passing options and try to hit on the break.

     

    One concern might be Dembele, freezing cold weather and fragile hamstrings are not an ideal mix.
22. TimJim on 22nd February 2018 5:27 pm

    Come on my Bhoys 0-0 or 1-1 will do.

    Sunderland owner Ellis Short prepared to give club away for FREE – so long as any new owner takes on substantial debts.

     

     

    He should phone Sevco for advice?

26. Zbyszek on 22nd February 2018 5:32 pm

    I see Zenit squad and I’m very optimistic. Celtic will not lose this game.
27. What is the Stars on 22nd February 2018 5:32 pm

    Last Thursday I predicted that we would lose heavily and that Brown and Lustig would be red carded (for fighting with each other)

     

    Well my prediction was 100 per cent correct (Ok if you want to nit pick we didnt lose and no one was sent off but they are minor details so I will go for same prediction tonight)

    So it’s 15 degrees C inside the stadium so no worries about the cold! Looks like a great playing surface so ideal conditions for us tonight.

     

     

    A time for the young Bhoys to become mhen!

    A billion quid spent on the stadium.

     

    Retractable roof, central heating, new playing surface

     

    BUT no hover pitch???

     

    Amateurs!
35. setting free the bears for Res. 12 & Oscar Knox on 22nd February 2018 5:39 pm

    CSKA won 1:0 in Russia last night

     

     

    Lokomotiv are winning 1:0 vs Nice currently

     

     

    Hard to score in Russia in the depths of their cold season.

    Anyone outside the UK care to recommend their favourite flavour of sausage?
37. Almore on 22nd February 2018 5:41 pm

    C’mon the HOOPS.

     

     

    Btw, I’m watching this match from behind the couch. Until we are 3-0 up anyway.
38. VFR800 is now a Monster 821 on 22nd February 2018 5:41 pm

    I reckon Brendan will have a wee tactical change tonight. Maybe Kouassi further back and Ntcham further forward.

     

     

    Will he play the ferryman in the same role?
